Update: Allergist is ordering me to grow again so we can do tests with the leaves and see if that’s it.

@SodiePop Please keep us posted. I’m very curious what it is. I’m wondering if your flowering plants have mold? I’ve had problems with mold in the past (see my posts). I’m still learning and what I learned recently is that in flowering phase, the buds act like sponges and absorb water. Easy to get mold. I tossed a bunch of stuff because I was unsure about smoking it. The general advice seemed to be that smoking mold wouldn’t seriously hurt you UNLESS you are immuno-compromised or have allergies. So be careful what you smoke until you have this figured out. That is, a friends home grown pot (or store’s pot for that matter) might be bad news for you if it has mold.

Nope. I created a drip irrigation system for the plants. No water ever touches the plant except the roots. Also, the problem always seems to go away when the plants start to flower.
I’ve also never smoked my own grown stuff. I grow it for my mom who has arthritis. Her and her friends love it. I havent smoked in over a year.

Sounds like the soil causing the issue. Another reason I grow only organic, same with my food.
I use Gaia Green living soil and their nutes too. I always wear an N95’ too, just to be sure I’m not inhaling it.

It could also be the sudden change in humidity between the rooms. It can affect some people more than others. Just a possibility.

I went to an allergist. I’m mildly allergic to certain common molds, but she said that reaction doesn’t line up with that at all.

I doubt it. I work in crazy conditions with sudden temperature changes and huge humidity swings.
